I was the fucker who got everyone organised.... under a tree. and navigated the coach down to pick half of us up in the most weirdest moments in my life ever. Even though there was this most intense storm I was totally at bliss with myself. Infact I fount love right there and then.. it was fucking weird man I tell you weird.

It was nuts as we headed out... The storm was starting to brew and I said to Bronwen, you know what B, when we head back we are going to be right underneath that and all hell is going to break loose. 2 and a half hours later and it was like Jurassic Park. Like I said an amazing moment that I probably take to my grave with me.

I just kept thinking "It'd just be typical for this festival that it'd be the first one in the world to lose a boatload of people".

It was the torrential rain and the water sweeping down the hills which where the problem... it made for very treacherous driving. We owe the driver to be honest for getting us back safely. Only reason I got on the boat was for a girl as well... typical.. told you breasts be my down fall!

I'm listening to James Blake's remix of 'Stop What You're Doing' and it just occurred to me how amazing it would be to hear it whilst in the middle of a storm at sea. Maybe 'Tree Trunk' and 'Return II Space' too.

You can most probably by tickets on the door like the last two years, just sort out your own accomodation, get on a bus or a plane and make your way out there.
Chea..

No more drunken camera anticts this year.
Going purely to get mashup.
Oh and can someone make sure Distance has a ground floor apartment with no patio furniture? Many thanks.

Gave up waiting for the apartment people to get in touch as no response after I sent a chaser email. Going alone, can't afford to get stuck with nothing left apart from a 6-person apartment.

That's the way mate... Trust out look should be of the wall.. well looking forward to it. It's like only a few weeks after I get back from my training camp as well so it's a proper reward!
We should have a little ninja meeting when we get out there!
Chea!

I'm flying out the day after another festival.
Literally like music on sunday night. flight monday evening and last time I went to this festival I was still awake and pretty fucked up at 7am the monday morning.
Could be interesting trying to get up to Bristol and on a plane after that.
Or hell, more likely

Did you receive a new form to fill out at all? I did, sent it back, got it confirmed that it was all good. I'm staying in Stinjan I think it's called, more of a quiet place, but it is just me and my best girl mate going over there. Wouldn't mind some pictures or something of the place I'll be staying in though!
What are you doing now, arranging somewhere yourself?
Yeah mate dubstep's cool. Kinda prefer tech house these days. Gnome sayin'

You'll probably find a few people who turn up with no accommodation hoping to get something on the day.
There were a few of those last year.
